Often it is screwed into the side of the transmission, under the car. It will have two or maybe three wires coming from it.

I got a 2010 f-450 super duty 6.4 diesel towing wrecker is the a reverse light switch ? if it does where is it located on the transmission ?
Hello. Yes, I am sure there is a 'back up' lamp circuit on your truck. You didn't specify if your truck has a manual or automatic transmission. If your truck has an automatic transmission, then the 'neutral safety switch' has to be replaced; assuming the back up lamps are good. Yes, modern automatic transmission vehicles, usually, have the neutral safety switch on the side of their transmissions. Most modern manual transmission vehicles neutral safety switch are either under the 'shifter assembly' or on top of their transmission. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

My 1991 ford escort won't turn over. Fully charged battery. any ideas?
There is no relay involved in the starter circuit of this vehicle . The micro switch you are talking about at the shifter has nothing to do with the starting circuiIt either . If you have a automatic transmission There is on the transmission the park neutral safety switch . Won't allow the vehicle to start unless the transmission is in park or neutral . Ford calls the switch manual lever position switch . Try moving the shift lever to netual to see if it starts .

Where is the automatic transmission dipstick located on a 89 ford escort and why does the gear shift act in its starting, whether or not? ( moving it)
Dip stick comes out of dip stick tube coming from transmission (side of trans) Look real hard on the side of the transmission behind the engine you will see it.

The second issue sounds like a neutral safety switch.

Automatic ford escort 1998 will not shift out of "park"
There is a switch between the brake and the transmission. I forget what its called but unless you have your brake pedal pressed your car will not shift out of park. If you do have your brake pedal pressed there may be something wrong with the sensor.
